HAT TRENDING SPRING 2013 Most Popular Hats in Colorado

Most HAT TRENDING SPRING 2013 Popular Hats in Colorado
The popular hat trend in the NoCo area has been knit caps or “beanies” especially on young men and boys. This has been going on in the Denver area as well for over a year. It has been such a strong trend that even my nine year old nephew showed up for Mother’s Day with a knit cap and wore it all day. At least it saved his head from the sunburn that showed up on the rest of him.

The Newsboy/Pageboy or the Cadet Cap is hot for ladies.

I am quite happy that something else besides the Stetson (or cowboy hat) and the ever more popular Baseball Cap (the last 20 years) have shown up on the heads of Coloradoans. I’ve had many unique requests for hats lately including Pillbox, Bowler (Derby), Top Hat, Dredlock Caps and “Kentucky Derby” hats.

You’ll still see a lot of the Dew hats or “Do Rags” (bandanas or leather sewn into a skull cap), the Fedora and bandanas worn around town as well as the standard Cowboy and Baseball.

The Red Hat Society ladies are making a big show in Longmont and Loveland these days and seem to like Bolero (or “Gaucho”) and Breton style hats a lot (not to be confused with a Breton Cap, which is a Greek Fisherman’s Cap). They also seem to love the big brim hats a lot, and who wouldn’t? You can put all kinds of “bling” on those.
I personally would like to see the “Grannie Cap” come back into style.

Jeans Patches can be hidden or decorative.

Jeans are a staple clothing item for most Americans. Now I can say that from my own observation and don’t feel the need to quote any statistic, as it’s quite obvious to us. Favorite jeans designs and cuts will change and your favorite pair could be no longer produced. When you’ve worn your jeans and “broken them in” they take on a specific shape that has been sculpted and molded to your body. This custom jeans molding can take months or years, depending on how hard you wear your jeans. The reason for the love of our jeans is not only the comfort of a well worn pair, but the custom fit we obtain over time. Both of these reasons are a great motivation for patching your jeans when they are wearing out. We at Rip Club can teach you how to patch up your jeans. You can either make the patch blend in and not noticeable, or get creative with decorative patching. Rip Club can do it for you or we can walk you through it at the club. We have all the materials you will need to patch up your jeans and save your favorites!

Just wanted to comment on how beautiful the fall colors are here in Colorado.  Indian Summer has been lovely in Loveland, Colorado. The vibrant color combinations remind me of our fantastic fall coats that we are making in the RIP CLUB. Check out our new retail items which include these recycled sweater coats, Party Pocket Purses, Beaded Jewelry and cool weather comfy hats.
